Kourtney Kardashian is expecting her first child with husband Travis Barker, 47.
The 44-year-old reality TV star revealed the news to the public as the Blink-182 drummer performed on stage at his concert by holding up a sign that read: ‘Travis, I’m Pregnant.’
It’s a nod to the band’s iconic All The Small Things music video, in which a similar sign appears.
After catching a glimpse of his wife’s message, Travis jumped down off the stage, made his way towards her and the couple shared a passionate kiss.
She later confirmed the news on her Instagram Story by sharing a video of the surprise reveal.
Kourtney revealed last December that she’d officially stopped her IVF journey 10 months prior after she said it caused her to spiral into a deep depression among other symptoms.
She already shares three children — Mason, 13, Penelope, 10, and Reign, eight — with ex-boyfriend Scott Disick, 39.
Travis has two children — Landon, 29, and Alabama, 17 — with his ex-wife Shanna Moakler, 48.

The couple wed at a courthouse in Santa Barbara in May 2022 before jetting off to Portofino, Italy a week later to hold a lavish wedding at the Dolce & Gabbana mansion in front of their friends and family.
Kourtney has been open with fans about her attempts to conceive a child with husband Travis Barker through in vitro fertilization.
In 2022, Kourtney first detailed her struggle with IVF on Hulu’s The Kardashians.
In the episode, Kourtney was at her Calabasas home as mom Kris Jenner came to visit, asking how the doctors went, as Kourtney responded: ‘Awful.’
Kourtney revealed in confession that their doctor took them ‘down this road of doing IVF, and it hasn’t been the most amazing experience.’
She also claimed that the ‘medication that they have been giving me, they put me into menopause, literally into menopause.’
Along with the Kourtney said that it also put her into a depression and caused weight gain.
‘I think because I’m so clean and careful about what I put into my body, it’s just like having the complete opposite reaction and working as a contraceptive instead of helping us,’ she told audiences at the time.
‘I have everything in the world to be happy about. I just feel a little bit off and not like myself. Super moody and hormonal, like I am a lunatic half the time.’
In December 2022, she confirmed to fans that she’d officially stopped treatment 10 months earlier and was only just ‘getting my energy back.’
She told The Wall Street Journal that she ‘took a break to just focus on our wedding and getting married’ — which took place in May 2022.
In the season premiere episode of season three of The Kardashians, the POOSH founder further discussed their choice to discontinue IVF and how she’d frozen her eggs in her 30s.
‘We would love a baby more than anything but I just really believe in what God has in store for us,’ she explained.
Kourtney had ‘seven frozen eggs from years ago before Travis’ that those around her had pushed her to get.
‘When I was 38 or 39 everyone was like pushing me to do that and most of mine didn’t survive the thaw because eggs are one cell and none of them made it to an embryo.’
Kourtney was always aware that ‘freezing of the eggs is not a guarantee’ that she would get pregnant.

She told her sister Khloe that her and Travis already ‘have a full, blessed life’ without a child, so they were not letting it get them down.
‘All the thing that came with IVF took a toll on me physically. My health is still impacted because it’s hormones. And also mentally it took a toll,’ she explained.
‘So, I think just being happy is most important and being a good parent to my kids. We are just embracing that whatever is meant to be will be.’
Kourtney previously said that motherhood is her ‘favorite role in life’ and that it ‘gives me purpose.’
